Like so many of you, I was extremely saddened waking up to the news that David Bowie had passed away yesterday morning. My phone buzzing with texts from friends and my mom, sharing their shock about the discovery. I spent the morning overcome with feelings of loss, sadness, and nostalgia listening to the songs that helped shape my childhood and my love for music. You will be missed my Starman friend. Thank you for everything.

Wow, this is so sad and shocking. I will miss his genius. He was my first concert. My friend and I begged our parents to go and had to have her older sister drive us. We had the biggest crush on him and his music. A few days before his death I had a Bowie marathon while I was working on other things. I saw him twice live and every time was amazing. I wish everybody could have seen him live. His music is interwoven in my life and memories. When I was 15 and saw him for the first time. I didn’t know it was a historical moment in music history. It was his first concert of his first tour in America on 9/22/72 in Cleveland, Ohio. Here is a link to an article and video clips of this concert. I will miss you shining bright Starman. http://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2016/01/watch_david_bowie_make_his_us.html

Thanks for the photos, lovely post as usual and about such a poignant topic! It’s nice to see his many facets but also those quieter, more dressed down sides to him you found, like the photos with his family. <3 I read an article I think you'd enjoy that shows a really positive, real side to David, recounted by drummer Sterling Campbell, telling about David's generosity of spirit and support of artistic vision in others. Thought to share with you too – http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/1941338-sterling-campbell-my-time-with-david-bowie/
